ABC Transfer, a Tours, France-based industrial designer and manufacturer of secure Rapid Transfer Systems (RTS) for the biopharmaceutical industry, raised €3m ($3.2M) in series A financing round.
The round was led by Go Capital, an investment fund management firm and representative of the Loire Valley Invest Fund, with Bpifrance, the French national bank, and the regional government of Centre-Val de Loire contributing grants and loans.
The company intends to use the funds to accelerate the development of its ABC Transfer® system, that improves 50 features, launch in Q4/2020 a new brand of Rapid Transfer Ports (RTP), especially designed for the biopharmaceutical industry, and gear up production. It will also strengthen its R&D activities, maintaining a budget of at least 15% of its turn-over over the long term.
Co-founded in June 2019 by Thierry Girard, CEO, CFO and CCO, and Jean-Luc Schneider, its COO and CTO.
